The Oseberg ship is one of the most important archaeological testimonies of the Vikings. After excavation in 1904, the wooden gravegoods were conserved using alum salts. This resulted in extreme degradation of a number of the objects a hundred years...

General Method for the Asymmetric Synthesis of N–H Sulfoximines via C–S Bond Formation (2020)
Journal Article
Mendonça Matos, P., Lewis, W., Argent, S. P., Moore, J. C., & Stockman, R. A. (in press). General Method for the Asymmetric Synthesis of N–H Sulfoximines via C–S Bond Formation. Organic Letters, 22(7), 2776-2780. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.orglett.0c00761

A versatile method for the synthesis of enantioenriched N–H sulfoximines is reported. The approach stems from the organomagnesium-mediated ring opening of novel cyclic sulfonimidate templates. The reactions proceed in high yield and with excellent st... Read More about General Method for the Asymmetric Synthesis of N–H Sulfoximines via C–S Bond Formation.

A ‘greener’ one-pot synthesis of monoterpene-functionalised lactide oligomers (2020)
Journal Article
O'Brien, D. M., Atkinson, R. L., Cavanagh, R., Pacheco, A. A., Larder, R., Kortsen, K., Krumins, E., Haddleton, A. J., Alexander, C., Stockman, R. A., Howdle, S. M., & Taresco, V. (2020). A ‘greener’ one-pot synthesis of monoterpene-functionalised lactide oligomers. European Polymer Journal, 125, 109516. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eurpolymj.2020.109516

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd In this work we aimed to achieve a totally sustainable Ring Opening Polymerisation (ROP) process, by harmonising the use of naturally occurring or derivable initiators and the green solvent 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF). First... Read More about A ‘greener’ one-pot synthesis of monoterpene-functionalised lactide oligomers.
